Recently the people of this nation were shocked by the
stories that appeared an the front pages of the daily newspapers in every city in the country of the brutal sex slayingff
of .two little girls, one in California and the other in Idaho.
For a week these two tragic deaths were the main topic
of discussion in many parts of the country. Various sorts oi
punishment have been prescribed for the perpetrators of th(
Crimes ranging all the way from imprisonment for life t(
burning at the stake.
After this furor has spent itself the country will drop
back into its normal rut, to await the next similar crinu
which is sure to follow sooner or later. And, after a sentence of some sort has been pronounced against the perpetrator of the crime, the country will dust off it's collective hands
arid say with a smirk, "well, we sure took care of that."
'A Nothing is further or could be farther from the truth.
N&ther this case nor the ones that will follow it have been

in such crimes, nothing, absolutely nothing will be done.

"We must use our democracy or we must lose our democracy." I copied that line from a speech by Dr. James E.
Sheppard, late President of the North Carolina College for
Negroes.
I copied it not because it was written in a speech on or
for Negroes—but because to my way of thinking it expressed MoitlhofC fl# DnnamllAl' 19 RIaaIihiv
the basic principle back of all talk on the democratic way of ' mCHIUGlO <H UCb-ClllU-CI \L ITlCCMIlg
life. The class, creed, or coloor of an American is unimportant. It is how he or she expresses in work and action the principles of equality that that is American.
"We must use our democracy or we must lose our democracy." It is for that way of life we are fighting today—
not for a party nor for persons—but for the one way that
affords a chance for the improvement of everyone's chances
and for everyone's right to live. Democracy is not a way of
privilege for any one group, be it majority or minority. Democracy is a way of opportunity for all people.
Democracy is a way, however, and not the destination.
One cannot overturn ancient prejudices in a day. Great social
wrongs exist; they must be righted but without any tinge
of vengeance. In short the pendulum must not swing to rapidly lest it swing too far.
The easiest thing in the world is to be a critic and it is
easy to criticize the progress already made, and the rate at
which it has gone. We are al) impatient. Time does not move
fast enough. Our minds outstrip events. But we cannot overlook the one basic fundamental that the American way of
democracy, slowly but surely, has brought fairer dealings and
a better opportunity than any other way of life.
To be sure, there are some people who cherish intolerance
above the needs of their country. Fortunately, however, despite the fact that they are very vocal, they are a relatively
small minority. Probably they cannot be won over, but the
great majority of. our people honestly believe in the principles of democracy and can be won by education to put that
democracy inO.[ action. They can be shown that it is only
groups who are "majority" or "minority"—and that individuals must be judged upon their own actions regardless of
the group from which they stem. Therefore as they learn
t'p respect individuals, so will they learn not to misjudge the
groups from which those respected individuals come.
"We must use our democracy or we must lose it." The
<j<eihocratic way is the best way of personal responsibility as
■Well as of personal rights. Each and every member of a democratic country is charged with the duty of living up to its
ideals and practices of thinking and working for the best
interests of all at all times. Each and every one of us has a
Spare and an opportunity in this great task. No one of us is
tjbp humble, no one of us too lowly to contribute to the com-
ljuin good. There is no one of us who cannot follow the de-
mocratic way. If Wfe each do our part, we can use our demo-
ctacyand we -\ipli hot lose it «.-..*. _..
